We are celebrating the season of Autumn in class at the moment.

We are very lucky to live so close to Phoenix Park. Many of us see signs of Autumn there at the weekends.

Have a look at our nature table and tree.

How many 'Autumn' words can you think of ?

We learned how to sequence stories last week.

This week we sequenced photos of ourselves from different times in our lives.

They look great!

We thought about what we could do when we were younger. Here is some examples of what we came up with....

"When I was 1 years old I could crawl".
"When I was 3 years old I started playschool".
"When I was five years old I learned how to read".

We also thought of some things we will be able to do when we are older.

"When we are older we will be able to drive, cook and do the grocery shopping".

We have been learning to sequence stories. We use the words First, Next, Then and Finally.

We read 'The Smartest Giant in Town' by Julia Donaldson. She is a great author. She wrote another of our favourite books 'The Gruffalo'.

We drew pictures to show what happened First, Next, Then and Finally. Here are some samples of our work! They are great!

Maybe you would like to listen to the story again .....
